Bumblefoot - wasted away

 

:tears:

 

Think its the song i can relate to most EVER (so far)

 

2 years today, I just pulled the blankets off the mirrors for the first time

Surprised at the new lines on my face that remind how I tried to catch an illusion

Hiding from me, hiding from facing the height of what I hope to be

Kept all my eggs in someone else's basket

Thinking they would care enough to not let someone smash it

 

What's wrong with me, I got this need to give back to a world that keeps me

And if I do just for myself it's like I'm selfish

'Cause I always had this thing about staying grounded and down

And it's not been worth it to share with the people I pick that I sought to prove they care

And I feel like a pussy sayin' **** out loud

But I'm openin' my eyes and I see myself now

 

I left myself behind

While chasing after dreams I could never find

I lived for all your lives

A machine for you to unplug at any time

I just realized today that I've wasted away

 

Maybe it's too late - the end has a date - and I'm cramming for the final test

It hasn't been a total mess, I'm just striving for higher

And humility will build me if I confess

Some people do what they chose some people look for every bump in the road

And some pretend and they play a good role

For the people that depend - they all come and go

 

Wrote half an album in 2 long days as I reflected and tried to take a hard next step

Of a spiritual kind so maybe I can find some sense as I pick apart a burdened mind

So I spread out on the floor all the pieces that I thought were fully formed

I see how much more I've got to go

I reach for a new drug to medicate my soul

 

I left myself behind

While chasing after dreams I could never find

I lived for all your lives

A machine for you to unplug at any time

Just realized today

 

I left myself behind

While chasing after dreams I could never find

I lived for all your lives

To forget about the answers I need to find

I just realized today that I've wasted away
